Abstract
This paper describes a novel vapour absorption refrigeration cycle which uses a steam ejector to enhance the concentration process of the cycle. The paper provides a complete description of the cycle and presents the results of a theoretical study before going on to describe and evaluate the outcomes of an experimental programme. The results of this investigation showed that with the addition of a steam ejector as described the coefficient of performance (COP) of the single-effect lithium bromide absorption cycle can be increased from about 0.7 to at least 1.0 without any increase in corrosion rates often associated with high temperature vapour generators used in conventional machines of this type.
